Also known as daemons (no, not those daemons), Yugoloths are the neutral evil equivalent of the devils and demons. Just like the Baatezu and Tanar'ri, they had their name changed to its current form in 2e, because the ancient Greek word for “spirit” is FAR too satanic to put in an rpg. Yugoloths aren't nearly as popular as the two other major fiendish races, nor are they as well known. Yugoloths are originally from the Gray Waste of Hades, though nowadays most of them live in Gehenna.

Yugoloths embody the platonic idea of Evil itself. Not “evil”, mind you, but Evil. They lie, cheat, and betray for its own sake, and generally seek to cause as much suffering and hate as possible to everyone. They're kind of dicks like that. They act as mercenaries in the Blood War, constantly switching sides between the Baatezu and the Tenar'ri (this can happen multiple time in a single battle).
